BLOW THAT FAILED
AIR FORCE UNIMPAIRED London, Sept. 9. The Times in a leader says: "Many of Saturday 's casualties were caused by attacks falling on men of the services. The enemy attempted a crushing blow to reassure the Germans and strengthen the world's rapidly waning estimate of ms power to injure England fatally. raid, however, has not impaired the EA.F.'s strength. It has not seriously damaged the national war effort and emphatically it has not shaken the civilian morale which was a large part of tne enemy's purpose. "The verdict of the victims was that the experienee was a mere incldent in the process of winning mastery over a ruthless enemy."
